Monocytes isolated using Percoll gradient or CD14-magnetic beads (Miltenyi Biotec) were cultured for 5 to 6 d in RPMI 1640 complete medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific) containing 10% fetal calf serum (Biowest), 50 U/mL penicillin, 50 μg/mL streptomycin, and 2 mM glutamine (all from Thermo Fisher Scientific). For generation of moDCs, monocytes were cultured in the presence of recombinant human IL-4 (500 U/mL) and GM-CSF (800 U/mL; both from Immunotools). For generation of moMacs, recombinant human M-CSF (50 ng/mL; Miltenyi Biotec) was used. To increase CD169 expression, cells were treated with recombinant human IFNα (1,000 U/mL; Miltenyi Biotec) during the last 2 d of culture. For enrichment of primary DCs, PBMCs were depleted from non-DC populations using biotinylated antibodies against CD3, CD14, CD19, CD56 (10 µg/mL; all produced and validated in-house), and CD16 (5 µg/mL; Biolegend) and streptavidin nanobeads (Biolegend) using an LD Column (Miltenyi).

CD14+ monocytes were isolated using magnetic beads (Miltenyi) on LS column according to manufacturer’s recommendation. Where indicated, monocytes were isolated using Percoll density gradient. Monocytes were cultured in RPMI 1640 complete medium (Thermo Fisher Scientific) containing 10% fetal calf serum (Biowest), 50 U/mL penicillin, 50 μg/mL streptomycin, and 2 mM glutamine (all from Thermo Fisher Scientific). Monocytes were then treated with recombinant human IFNα (Miltenyi Biotec) at indicated doses and time-points.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
